Playboy...Shoes?



Playboy...Shoes?

Pop culture is a meeting place that highlights many of the tensions and contradicationsin society - it's China's modern mahjong. Playboy manifesting itself as popular women's fashion as commercial consumption is such a great example! This is so funny...
Thank youDigital Existence for taking this photo. DG'sdescript for this photo, "Playboy, as you may or may not know, is the premiere pornographic men's magazine in the U.S. Given the Chinese government's stance on "moral corruption" and outright ban of anything remotely pornographic, it's odd to see Playboy (complete with the bunny logo) peddling their own brand of women's shoes. I suspect most Chinese women who buy these shoes have no idea what the Playboy brand really represents."
